An Efficient Cider Mill and Wine Press.
Do-it-your-self wine making pleasure.
The mill uses a 3/4 hp stainless steel food grinder (garbage disposer) mounted in a Corian tub that fits over a 30 gallon barrel.
For apples etc. the finer the pulp the more juice extracted and it grinds very fine. Counter top companies usually have cheap leftovers.
The press is a Wisconsin cheese press using a Corian tub and latices. The press force is applied by using a hydraulic jack.
The tub is 18 " by 24" and the open box is 16" by 16" The fruit after pressing is almost dry.
After fermentation and racking the pleasure remains, even increases!
